Trustees' esponsibilities and Approval The Trustees are required to maintain adequate accounting records and are responsible for the content and integrity of the annual financial statements and related financial information included in this report. It is their responsibility to ensure that the annual financial statements fairly present the state of affairs of the Trust as at the end of the financial year and the results of its operations and cash flows for the period then ended, in conformity with the International Financial eporting Standard for Small and Medium-sized Entities. The external auditors are engaged to express an independent opinion on the annual financial statements. The annual financial statements are prepared in accordance with the International Financial eporting Standard for Small and Mediumsized Entities and are based upon appropriate accounting policies consistently applied and supported by reasonable and prudent judgments and estimates. The Trustees acknowledge that they are ultimately responsible for the system of internal financial control established by the Trust and place considerable importance on maintaining a strong control environment. To enable the Trustees to meet these responsibilities, the board of Trustees sets standards for internal control aimed at reducing the risk of error or loss in a cost effective manner. The standards include the proper delegation of responsibilities within a clearly defined framework, effective accounting procedures and adequate segregation of duties to ensure an acceptable level of risk. These controls are monitored throughout the Trust and all employees are required to maintain the highest ethical standards in ensuring the Trust s business is conducted in a manner that in all reasonable circumstances is above reproach. The focus of risk management in the Trust is on identifying, assessing, managing and monitoring all known forms of risk across the Trust. While operating risk cannot be fully eliminated, the Trust endeavours to minimise it by ensuring that appropriate infrastructure, controls, systems and ethical behaviour are applied and managed within predetermined procedures and constraints. The Trustees are of the opinion, based on the information and explanations given by management, that the system of internal control provides reasonable assurance that the financial records may be relied on for the preparation of the annual financial statements. However, any system of internal financial control can provide only reasonable, and not absolute, assurance against material misstatement or loss. The Trustees have reviewed the Trust s cash flow forecast for the year to 28 February 2017 and, in the light of this review and the current financial position, they are satisfied that the Trust has or has access to adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. The external auditors are responsible for independently auditing and reporting on the Trust's annual financial statements. The annual financial statements have been examined by the Trust's external auditors and their report is presented on page 4. The annual financial statements set out on pages 5 to 21, which have been prepared on the going concern basis, were approved by the board of Trustees on 16 August 2016 and were signed on its behalf by: P. Camay P. Van Zyl 3

Independent Auditors' eport To the Trustees of Asbestos elief Trust We have audited the annual financial statements of Asbestos elief Trust, as set out on pages 8 to 20, which comprise the statement of financial position as at 29 February 2016, and the statement of comprehensive income, statement of changes in equity and statement of cash flows for the year then ended, and the notes, comprising a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory information. Trustees' esponsibility for the Annual Financial Statements The Trust s Trustees are responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these annual financial statements in accordance with the International Financial eporting Standard for Small and Medium-sized Entities and requirements of the Trust Deed, and for such internal control as the trustees determine is necessary to enable the preparation of annual financial statements that are free from material misstatements, whether due to fraud or error. Auditors' esponsibility Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these annual financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing. Those standards require that we comply with ethical requirements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance whether the annual financial statements are free from material misstatement. An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the annual financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditors' judgement, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the annual financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity s preparation and fair presentation of the annual financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity s internal control. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the annual financial statements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion. Opinion In our opinion, the annual financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Asbestos elief Trust as at 29 February 2016, and its financial performance and cash flows for the year then ended in accordance with the International Financial eporting Standard for Small and Medium-sized Entities, and the requirements of the Trust Deed.

Accounting Policies 1. Presentation of Annual Financial Statements The annual financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the International Financial eporting Standard for Small and Medium-sized Entities. The annual financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis, and incorporate the principal accounting policies set out below. They are presented in South African ands. These accounting policies are consistent with the previous period. 1.1 Significant judgements and sources of estimation uncertainty In preparing the annual financial statements, management is required to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts represented in the annual financial statements and related disclosures. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results in the future could differ from these estimates which may be material to the annual financial statements. 1.2 Property, plant and equipment Property, plant and equipment are tangible items that: are held for use in the production or supply of goods or services, for rental to others or for administrative purposes; and are expected to be used during more than one period. Property, plant and equipment is carried at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses. Costs include costs incurred initially to acquire or construct an item of property, plant and equipment and costs incurred subsequently to add to, replace part of, or service it. If a replacement cost is recognised in the carrying amount of an item of property, plant and equipment, the carrying amount of the replaced part is derecognised. Depreciation is provided using the straight-line method to write down the cost, less estimated residual value over the useful life of the property, plant and equipment, which is as follows: Item Buildings Furniture and fixtures Office equipment IT equipment Computer software Average useful life 20 Years 10 Years 5 Years 3 Years 2 Years The residual value, depreciation method and useful life of each asset are reviewed at each annual reporting period if there are indicators present that there has been a significant change from the previous estimate. Gains and losses on disposals are determined by comparing the proceeds with the carrying amount and are recognised in profit or loss in the period. 1.3 Financial instruments Initial measurement Financial instruments are initially measured at the transaction price. This includes transaction costs, except for financial instruments which are measured at fair value through surplus or deficit. Financial instruments at amortised cost Debt instruments, as defined in the standard, are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. Debt instruments which are classified as current assets or current liabilities are measured at the undiscounted amount of the cash expected to be received or paid, unless the arrangement effectively constitutes a financing transaction. At the end of each reporting date, the carrying amounts of assets held in this category are reviewed to determine whether there is any objective evidence of impairment. If so, an impairment loss is recognised 12

Accounting Policies 1.3 Financial instruments (continued) Financial instruments at cost Equity instruments that are not publicly traded and whose fair value cannot otherwise be measured reliably are measured at cost less impairment. This includes equity instruments held in unlisted investments. Financial instruments at fair value All other financial instruments are measured at fair value through profit and loss. 1.4 Leases A lease is classified as a finance lease if it transfers substantially all the risks and rewards incidental to ownership to the lessee. A lease is classified as an operating lease if it does not transfer substantially all the risks and rewards incidental to ownership. Operating leases lessee Operating lease payments are recognised as an expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term except in cases where another systematic basis is representative of the time pattern of the benefit from the leased asset, even if the receipt of payments is not on that basis, or where the payments are structured to increase in line with expected general inflation. 1.5 Impairment of assets The Trust assesses at each reporting date whether there is any indication that an asset may be impaired. If there is any indication that an asset may be impaired, the recoverable amount is estimated for the individual asset. If it is not possible to estimate the recoverable amount of the individual asset, the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs is determined. If an impairment loss subsequently reverses, the carrying amount of the asset (or group of related assets) is increased to the revised estimate of its recoverable amount, but not in excess of the amount that would have been determined had no impairment loss been recognised for the asset (or group of assets) in prior years. A reversal of impairment is recognised immediately in profit or loss. 1.6 Employee benefits Short-term employee benefits The cost of short-term employee benefits, (those payable within 12 months after the service is rendered, such as paid vacation leave and sick leave, bonuses, and non-monetary benefits such as medical care), are recognised in the period in which the service is rendered and are not discounted. 1.7 Provisions and contingencies Provisions are recognised when: the Trust has an obligation at the reporting date as a result of a past event; it is probable that the Trust will be required to transfer economic benefits in settlement; and the amount of the obligation can be estimated reliably. Contingent assets and contingent liabilities are not recognised. 13

Accounting Policies 1.8 evenue When the outcome of a transaction involving the rendering of services can be estimated reliably, revenue associated with the transaction is recognised by reference to the stage of completion of the transaction at the end of the reporting period. The outcome of a transaction can be estimated reliably when all the following conditions are satisfied: the amount of revenue can be measured reliably; it is probable that the economic benefits associated with the transaction will flow to the Trust; the stage of completion of the transaction at the end of the reporting period can be measured reliably; and the costs incurred for the transaction and the costs to complete the transaction can be measured reliably. evenue is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable and represents the amounts receivable for goods and services provided in the normal course of business, net of trade discounts and volume rebates, and value added tax. Interest is recognised, in surplus or deficit, using the effective interest rate method. 1.9 Borrowing costs Borrowing costs are recognised as an expense in the period in which they are incurred. 14
